Issue in v.1.4

Post by mhamburg »

Hi Ivo and all,
All of a sudden while processing a file, the program hung up in the Denoise Module as it was doing the 6 iterations of scale extraction. Complete surprise to me.
This issue did not show up in v.1.3. (I am also wondering if it is a problem with my computer.) Thanks for all input.

Thanks for reporting this Michael.

Can you tell me if it was in the middle of doing the scale extraction or at the end?

Hi Ivo,
The scale extraction would begin normally, then on or about the 4th iteration, the program would enter a continuous loop with the progress bar never proceeding more than about a quarter of the way to completion. Again, no problem with v.1.3.

Thanks again Michael. Can you consistently replicate this behaviour? Is this on Windows 10?

It's an operation that is quite taxing on your computer, with all available cores being used simultaneously, spawning heavy RAM activity as well...

Not sure if this is related or a separate one, but in two modules in the most recent version (away from PC just now so can't recall which number or modules) the 'spinner' disappears but the 'next' button remains greyed out.

Windows 7 64 bit - not sure if this is a consistent or random occurrence.

Back home now and can confirm that in both Bin module and Denoise, the spinner at bottom right disappears but both the 'Keep' button and the 'Before' button remain grayed out.

Version no is 1.4.322

Thanks Steve and Michael. I confirmed the latter bug (though I haven't been able to replicate the crashing yet).
Also reported here.

Though reproducing the crash remains elusive, the other bug should be fixed now in 1.4.324. Thanks again!
